Abstract: Feeling of guilt and social support not self-care of informal family caregivers. Due to the informal caregiver task demands it is crucial to provide him competences, not only for the care but also to guide him to the self-care. The objective of the present study was to analyze the female familiar caregiver’s behavior towards the guilt feeling and the need for familiar support in the self-care. It was used a qualitative nature study, interpretative paradigm. Nine female familiar caregivers participated in the study, they were selected by convenience. The research took part into two different stages: the first with an interview and a scale implementation and the second with the accomplishment of 10 psycho- educational intervention sessions carried out through group dynamics. The psycho-educative intervention proved to be effective since it contributed to the development of personal/social competences needed for the caregivers’ self-care maintenance. The study reinforces the self-care need as an element to be valued in familiar informal caregivers.
